BUILDABLE

Residential Elevators & Platform Lifts in Ottawa

We should all have access to every floor & space in the home we love and have worked so hard for. An in-home elevator can make all the difference.

BuildAble is grateful to be trusted by multiple Ottawa Hospital surgeons & staff.

WHY WORK WITH US?

THE BENEFITS OF HAVING AN ELEVATOR MECHANIC AT THE HELM OF BUILDABLE!
 

It's the old joke - an Elevator Mechanic, a Nurse and a Carpenter all walk into a bar.. err, house!

The result is thoughtful, well-designed spaces that combine construction know-how with health needs.

​

The placement & type require thorough planning. Our hoistways are built considering how you will get from your driveway to the top floor with ease - and how this will work for everyone in the home.

​

We coordinate the build, design, engineers & installation - with an EDM overseeing it all. You can trust that your needs will be at the forefront of any of our projects.

COST

The big question. Elevators themselves can range from 20K-60K. But often, the bigger costs come from building the hoistway itself (the framework). You'll need to think of this like an addition to your home - engineers required!

​

However, it's an investment that will ensure you can stay in the home you love for years to come.

VERTICAL
PLATFORM LIFTS (VPL)

A VPL can be a great option when only needing to transfer between a smaller set of steps. This is usually outdoors or in a garage to enter the main level of a home. Or when there is a small amount of steps within a home (eg. a split-level).
